Description
- French oak
- Blueberry
- Mixed spice
- Silky tannins
"Richly fruited and instantly appealing, the wine shows black/blueberry, rich floral, toasty oak and warm spice aromas, followed by a generously expressed palate offering ripe fruit intensity with velvety mouthfeel, leading to a lengthy delectable finish. At its best: now to 2033" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Jun 2023
Beautiful dark garnet colour. Black cherry, blueberry and mixed spice. Hints of pepper and soft oak spice are beautifully integrated with blackberry fruits and medium bodied silky tannins. Drink now - 2031.
Our DtG Shiraz is created by sourcing and harvesting only the very best premium Victorian fruit. As soon as primary fermentation was complete, the wine was racked into 500L French Oak Puncheons (80% New Oak, 20% 1 Year Old), where it was left to go through malolactic fermentation. With minimal intervention, the viticulture/winemaking was more important than ever.
This wine is a labour of love - one the accountants didn’t know about. In 2014, winemaker Jo Nash discovered an exeptional parcel of Shiraz which was gently crushed then stored away in some ridiculously expensive French Oak barrels to age for 12 months. The wine speaks for itself - minimal intervention, purity of fruit, Shiraz at its best. Made by a winemaker, not an accountant. Enjoy with abandon. Just....Don’t tell Gary.
Food Pairing: This is a special occasion wine. Drink with like minded wine lovers who enjoy sticking it to the man! Take a moment to admire the gorgeous colour of the wine, then it’s a perfect match to charcuterie and cheese, char-grilled steak, or a meat pie.
